The first poster and seven photos from the upcoming
John Hillcoat drama
Lawless (formerly known as The Wettest County in the World), has been released.
Based on a true-crime story, the film stars
Shia LaBeouf and
Tom Hardy as Jack and Forrest Bondurant, sibling criminals who make a run for the American Dream by smuggling alcohol in Prohibition-era Virginia, an activity that brings the criminal organization run by Floyd Banner (
Gary Oldman) to the attention of FBI Special Agent Charlie Rakes (
Guy Pearce). Threats, fisticuffs and Tommy gun shoot-outs ensue.
The director of
The Road and
The Proposition has assembled a cast that also includes
Jessica Chastain,
Mia Wasikowska and
Dane DeHaan for the bleak thriller.
The script was written by
Nick Cave!
